THE mother of Carly McBride has broken down as she told the man who helped dump her body and cover up her murder that he could have said something to put an end to two years of uncertainty and heartache while her daughter remained missing.
James Anthony Cunneen, now 31, was in July found guilty of being an accessory after the fact to murder over the brutal death of Ms McBride, a jury finding he knew all along what happened to the "missing" mother. Cunneen knew because his mate, Ms McBride's boyfriend Sayle Kenneth Newson, told him on the afternoon of September 30, 2014, that he had just picked her up in Muswellbrook and, in a jealous and ice-fuelled rage, bashed her to death.
